This is such an incredible RV community. My wife and I arrived in punta gorda days after hurricane Ian. The folks that manage this community are amazing and accommodating. The residents are truly great folks. Such a cool sense of community at waters edge. I hope to come back at least yearly. If you can get a spot, you’ve already scored. Enjoy it!!

Beautiful setting by the pond/lake. Friendly people and they were very helpful.

We booked a site for eight days in February 2022 over the summer. Since we are considered daily we had to pay in full. If you booked for a week or month you only have to put down a deposit. We recently found out my husband has cancer. He is having surgery on December 1. Then following in January and February he will have radiation therapy 5 times a week. So unfortunately we will have to postpone our trip. We know there is no refund but we thought we could at least get a credit to use at a later date. But management will not allow that either. My complaint is that if we booked for a week we would only be losing the deposit. But since we booked for 8 days we are losing over $600. Plus it is prime season and I know they will be able to rebook that site. Management is heartless.

Always a great place to park our RV. Lots are big and well spaced. Grounds are well kept. Dog park is nice but is full of mosquitoes.

The only reason this is not a 5 star review is because there was no wifi or good data signal. My husband and I work from home and a wifi or good data signal is crucial. The welcome package had a page about the free wifi, but no information about it. No password. The residents and volunteers I asked didn't know anything about it and the owner cannot be reached on the weekends. Otherwise..... This is a great place! Absolutely gorgeous, clean, residents are very friendly. Lots of community activities. There was an ice cream and pastry truck when we arrived. Good dog park. The lake view is wonderful. Lots of birds. We were told there is a gator in the lake that sometimes can be seen. Feels very upscale and safe. Good price at $60/night. Full hookups. Only a 5 minute drive from an awesome little downtown area with restaurants, water views, bars, and a HUGE farmer's market on Saturdays.

This is our second year here and we are enjoying it even more than last. Everyone is extremely friendly. The location is very convenient to downtown Punta Gorda.
